| * SELinux: introduce path_has_permEric Paris2011-04-281-14/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have inode_has_perm and dentry_has_perm. dentry_has_perm just calls inode_has_perm with additional audit data. But dentry_has_perm can take either a dentry or a path. Split those to make the code obvious and to fix the previous problem where I thought dentry_has_perm always had a valid dentry and mnt.

| * flex_array: flex_array_prealloc takes a number of elements, not an endEric Paris2011-04-281-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change flex_array_prealloc to take the number of elements for which space should be allocated instead of the last (inclusive) element. Users and documentation are updated accordingly. flex_arrays got introduced before they had users. When folks started using it, they ended up needing a different API than was coded up originally. This swaps over to the API that folks apparently need.

| * SELinux: pass last path component in may_createEric Paris2011-04-281-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New inodes are created in a two stage process. We first will compute the label on a new inode in security_inode_create() and check if the operation is allowed. We will then actually re-compute that same label and apply it in security_inode_init_security(). The change to do new label calculations based in part on the last component of the path name only passed the path component information all the way down the security_inode_init_security hook. Down the security_inode_create hook the path information did not make it past may_create. Thus the two calculations came up differently and the permissions check might not actually be against the label that is created. Pass and use the same information in both places to harmonize the calculations and checks. Reported-by: Dominick Grift <domg472@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * SELinux: put name based create rules in a hashtableEric Paris2011-04-283-61/+135
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To shorten the list we need to run if filename trans rules exist for the type of the given parent directory I put them in a hashtable. Given the policy we are expecting to use in Fedora this takes the worst case list run from about 5,000 entries to 17.

| * SELinux: skip filename trans rules if ttype does not match parent dirEric Paris2011-04-283-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now we walk to filename trans rule list for every inode that is created. First passes at policy using this facility creates around 5000 filename trans rules. Running a list of 5000 entries every time is a bad idea. This patch adds a new ebitmap to policy which has a bit set for each ttype that has at least 1 filename trans rule. Thus when an inode is created we can quickly determine if any rules exist for this parent directory type and can skip the list if we know there is definitely no relevant entry.

| * SELINUX: Make selinux cache VFS RCU walks safeEric Paris2011-04-253-25/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the dcache RCU walk or not it's possible to make selinux a bit more RCU friendly. The SELinux AVC and security server access decision code is RCU safe. A specific piece of the LSM audit code may not be RCU safe. This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU safe chunk of code. It will normally just work under RCU. This is done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.

(2) Do show keys that are negative, expired or revoked rather than hiding them. This requires an override flag (no_state_check) to be passed to search_my_process_keyrings() and keyring_search_aux() to suppress this check. Without this, keys that are possessed by the caller, but only grant permissions to the caller if possessed are skipped as the possession check fails.

Which is sad, because the code it generates is truly horrendous, with the statistics update being sandwitched between get_cpu/put_cpu which in turn causes preemption disables etc. We're talking ten+ instructions just to increment a per-cpu variable in some pretty hot code. Fix the craziness by just using 'this_cpu_inc()' instead. Suddenly we only need a single 'inc' instruction to increment the statistics. This is quite noticeable in the incredibly hot avc_has_perm_noaudit() function (which triggers all the statistics by virtue of doing an avc_lookup() call).
